Interesting times

For about two hours yesterday evening, Lisa had a series of contractions. Not quite predictable enough to be called regular, but not irregular enough to dismiss. Coupled with the fact that she has dropped, along with some other physical labor precursor signs, we were on alert. Then the contractions just stopped.

This is not unlike what we experienced with Keela: an advance bout of contractions followed by a lull then the rapid onset of labor. So if I abruptly vanish, stop answering emails and such, odds are that I'm busy cutting an umbilical cord somewhere.
